Answer 2

$\tt{Answer:}$

$\tt{60\: Students}$

Step-by-step Explanation:

Lets the total number of student be x

• Total numbet of girls = 3/5 of x
• Total number of boys = 24

Now,

• x - 3/5 of x = 24
• 5x - 3x/5 = 24
• 5x - 3x = 120
• 2x = 120
• x = 120/2
• x = 60

Therefore total number of student in class is 60
